New born goslings make a splash at Graves Park in these adorable photos - but council is warning dog owners

A flock of new feathered friends have made their debut in Sheffield

A patient photographer captured these new arrivals at a Sheffield pond this weekend.

A clutch of new born baby goslings have made a splash landing at Graves Park.

The gang of geese were caught on camera by 14-year-old photographer Toby Jones on Sunday (May 10) by getting low to the ground and snapping at a distance.

Toby told The Star visitors to the park were excited to see the new additions and there was often a crowd of fans.

However, Sheffield City Council has already had to remind parkgoers about the risk posed by dogs not on leads.

The authority posted on Facebook this morning to say: “Dog walkers around the duck ponds in Graves Park, please keep your dogs away from the wildlife and under control, this is their home.

“We’ve had numerous reports of dogs chasing the new born goslings into the water and upsetting the parents.

“Please keep dogs under control and respect the wildlife.”

These little geese will outgrow their downy feathers before you know it - enjoy these pictures by Toby Jones Photography of them at their most adorable below.
